[00:15.68]They sat together in the park
[00:19.27]As the evening sky grew dark
[00:22.70]She looked at him and he felt a spark tingle to his bones
[00:29.18]It was then he felt alone and wished that he'd gone straight
[00:36.92]And watched out for a simple twist of fate
[00:44.92]They walked along by the old canal
[00:49.72]A little confused, I remember it well
[00:51.89]Stopped into an old hotel with the neon burnin' bright
[00:58.24]He felt the heat of the night hit him like a freight train
[01:05.60]Moving with a simple twist of fate
[01:13.50]A clarinet some place softly played
[01:17.05]She was walkin' on by the arcade
[01:20.56]She heard the melody rise and fade, the sun was comin' up
[01:27.07]She dropped a coin into the cup of a blind man at the gate
[01:34.99]And forgot about a simple twist of fate
[01:42.72]He woke up and she was gone
[01:46.03]He didn't see nothing but the dawn
[01:50.85]He got out of bed with his clothes back on, pushed back blind
[01:56.89]Found a note she'd left behind, to which he just could not relate
[02:03.21]All about a simple twist of fate
[02:11.49]He hears the ticking of the clocks
[02:16.22]And walks along through the city blocks
[02:19.72]Hunt her down by the waterfront docks where the sailors all come in
[02:25.84]Maybe she'll see him once again, how long must he wait?
[02:32.29]Once more time for a simple twist of fate
[02:40.40]People tell me that it's a crime
[02:43.74]To feel too much at any one time
[02:47.42]She should have caught me in my prime, she would have stayed with me
[02:56.29]Instead of goin' off to sea and leavin' me to meditate
[03:01.17]Upon a simple twist of fate
